She is someone who pumps you up when you're down. She kind of makes everyone around her play better.

Since my freshman year, this is all I've wanted. Especially after last year (losing to McAuley in the final). We came so close.

They should know they're going to get asked about it a lot but unless somebody feels totally comfortable, they shouldn't constantly be put in that position.

I think it was just adrenaline. We've worked so hard for this all season.

It was a lot of fun. People still come up to us and talk about it, it was such a great thing for this town. It was something Sanford had never done.

Everyone should go to Take Back the Night. Even if you're not a victim, you should support the awareness that they're creating.

We just kept our cool. We didn't lose our heads.

We didn't want to get behind like McAuley did. We learned a lesson, I guess. We wanted to go out and get the jump on them so that we're not playing catch-up.
